COMPOSITES DESIGN CYCLE
Composites design involves numerous steps not
covered by a single software package
• Efficiency by using the right tool in the right place
ESAComp composites design software
• Materials database
• Conceptual and preliminary design
• FE pre and post
• Verification and reporting
ESAComp-HyperWorks interface
• Development driven by customer needs
• Joint effort by Componeering and Altair
Engineering

ESACOMP AND COMPONEERING INC.
ESAComp development was initiated by the
European Space Agency (ESA)
• Goal to establish industry standard laminate
analysis software to replace in-house tools
• ESAComp 1.0 was released in 1998
Developed by Componeering
• Helsinki, Finland based company
ESAComp users
• In 30+ countries
• Aerospace industry biggest user group
Available through Altair Partner Alliance

- Analysis of details after FEA (mechanical or bonded joint analysis, notched laminate analysis, probablistic effects, ...)
- Improvement of design (material reselection, lay-up redesign)
ESAComp - Visualization of ESAComp results as contours (reserve factors for laminates/plies)
- Visualization of ESAComp results as element annotations (crit. layers, failure modes)
- Through-the-thickness plots? (ESAComp plots in HyperView)
HyperView
- Post-processing of complete model or selected area/elements
- ESAComp failure analysis (advanced failure criteria, wrinkling, interlaminar shear, ...)
- Result viewing (numeric tables, through-the-thickness plots for selected element)
ESAComp to HyperView: CSV incl. added failure results for elements and plies
ESAComp
- Pre-processing of the model
- Application of the materials and lay-ups
- Solver call
HyperMesh to ESAComp: CSV incl. element forces and moments (+materials and lay-up for elements)
HyperMesh Desktop
- Preliminary design
- Material database, material selection
- Lay-up creation
ESAComp to HyperMesh: Material data and lay-up in solver specific format
